but we must turn our attention to Iraq, Syria, Iran, Libya and any other states that harbor and support Islamicists.

Oh, I'm sure we'll talk them all to death. Our first response to Osama should have been an ICBM in the vicinity of his hang out. That would have turned the countries you mentioned into blubbering fools. So far, we still look like a Clinton America. Bush, hurry the heck up, damn the torpedos. Renaming the battle was ultimate PC. Osama must be cackling his guts out.

I disagree, I don't think we look like a Clinton America. I think we have the toughest battle in history here, sequence is everything. If we had sent in a bomb instantly we'd have had unpredictable responses in every part of the world with no chance to react.

Pakistan, which side are they on? Will they fall to fundamentalism the minute we strike Afghanistan? Who else was involved in this? They would be stupid to air the results of the inquiry publicly, we really don't know enough to publicly second guess strategy, we can only hope that when we hit we hit hard and hit the true perpetrators of this.

I'll take just and effective action over urgent and reckless action any time.

Bush is far different from Clinton and I'm sure if we haven't hit yet it's for a good reason.
